In front of the arsenal gate, two armies gathered like a tide.

Almost at the same time, thick flames began to spread in the arsenal, and a large thick fog drifted from the arsenal to the sky, the fire grew larger and larger, and the temperature in the air became hotter and hotter.

Can... The two sides never seemed to have the idea of retreating, and they fought as always.

Speaking of which, in fact, Lu Meng's subordinates were not fully equipped, but under the inspiration of Lu Meng's bravery, they snatched the weapons of those dead soldiers and fought forward like crazy.

It's like... These dead soldiers of Hongyan are not Lu Meng's opponents.

Sun Ziyu, who was in the forefront, was called his uncle by Sun Shao, and in the process of confronting Lu Meng, he was accidentally slashed in the lower leg by his knife, and the whole person staggered to the ground.

Lu Meng is familiar with scheming, he used the most ruthless method, "click" twice to lift Sun Ziyu's chin, and then grabbed Sun Ziyu's hand, one of his wrists twisted hard, and suddenly the opponent's wrist was broken, the muscles and bones were broken, and the pain was so painful that the other party couldn't scream, so he could only open his mouth wide like a dying fish and inhale, his body spasmed and twitched, and his eyes shot a resentful look.

"Rebels, dare to stare at me like this?" Lu Meng sneered, picked up Sun Ziyu's other hand, and pinched it all the way up his wrist, only to hear the sound of broken bones, and pinched this section of his forearm like soft mud, Sun Ziyu screamed and fainted, and it didn't take long for him to wake up in pain...

"Uncle Ziyu—"

Sun Shao, who had completed the ignition in the arsenal, exclaimed when he saw the scene in front of him.

He didn't expect that Lu Meng, who was gentle and elegant in his ordinary comments, was now like a demon who killed people without blinking.

I only heard Lu Meng glaring at Sun Shao angrily, and said fiercely: "This is the end of your rebellion!" ”

"Don't forget, you were appreciated by my father in the past and introduced to the Governor of Zhou Gongjin... Otherwise, you're just an ordinary martial artist! Sun Shao shouted loudly.

"Hmph..."Lu Meng seemed to have forgotten all this.

Or rather, after that long, long dream, he had figured it out completely...

He understands Sun Quan, agrees with Sun Quan, and even supports Sun Quan better than the former General Sun Bofu and the Governor of Zhou Gongjin, whom he admires.

Because of Sun Quan's insistence on this inline clan, resisting Shanyue and attacking Jingzhou's strategy... It was right from the beginning, it was what he Lu Meng agreed with!

Lian Liu resisted Cao, went north to Huainan, and captured Xuzhou, but it was this strategy proposed by Lu Zijing, which was wrong, because Dongwu was not good at land warfare, Xuzhou... Hehe, even if Dongwu can capture Xuzhou, it can't hold it at all.

That's a dead end, a doomed strategy!

Based on this, Sun Quan's strategy from beginning to end, Lu Meng agreed with it incomparably-

He is the one who can die for Sun Quan from the bottom of his heart.

"Sun Shao, don't provoke me with these words, General Bofu and Governor Gongjin are kind to me, but it was the lord who persuaded me to learn and read at the beginning, and it was the lord who promoted me from a general to the deputy governor, and it was the lord who obeyed my strategy to conquer Jingzhou... It is precisely because I have studied and become a governor that my horizons have been broadened, do you think? Is this friendship between me and my lord something that you can sow discord? ”

Lu Meng glared at Sun Shao fiercely, "Impossible, you have died of this divisive heart, and in the current situation, you will be buried here like this traitor!" ”

As he spoke, Lu Meng fiercely used his sword to penetrate through Sun Ziyu's backbone, and blood rushed out from Sun Ziyu's back, staining Lu Meng's armor and Sun Shao's eyes.

"I'm your ancestor—"

Sun Shao roared, took the lead, and rushed straight away...

What Lu Meng was waiting for was this opportunity, he just wanted to provoke Sun Shao again and again, in this situation, only the thief and the king could control the situation at the first time, extinguish the fire of the arsenal, and then start his counterattack.

He, Lu Meng, understands human nature too well.

He tossed the dead man aside in his hand, then lifted his longbow and wound the arrow...

"Whoosh-"

An arrow shot out, pointing directly at Sun Shao...

Sun Shao was originally rushing, the distance was close, as if he was unstoppable, how could he ever think... At this moment, a black-clothed dead man blocked Sun Shao's front like a ray of light, and the arrow pierced through his chest...

"Li Lin..."

Sun Shao shouted out this person's name, this Li Lin... Previously, he was also a young adjutant of Sun Ce, and since Sun Ce's death, he joined Hongyan, and he is now only thirty years old.

Now... This dead soldier named Li Lin fell into Sun Shao's arms, and he trembled too much... Taking out a letter from his bosom, he smiled miserably, "Childe... When this battle is won, can you go home for me and give this letter to my father..."

Sun Shao's expression froze...

By this time, more dead men had stood in front of him, holding back the enemy's arrows with their swords.

Li Lin's words continued, "I am from Wu County, Wu County... I ran out of trouble with my family and defected to General Sun Bofu, General Bofu always advised me to go home, to explain clearly to my father, and to fulfill my filial piety, but I... I'm afraid I won't be able to do it anymore! ”

"I have a negative General Sun Bofu, and I also have a negative father and mother, I'm afraid I won't be able to go back..."

His eyes were extremely complicated, but under this dying and mournful appearance, his appearance was so pitiful. "Although I didn't look like any person, General Bo Fu treated me very well, he was the person I admired the most in my life... I promised him that I would go home, and I promised him that I would take care of you growing up, I... I finally did it, and when my son grew up, he also did this big thing, and I could go to General Bofu with my head held high under Jiuquan! ”

This...

Sun Shao gritted his teeth, he held the letter heavily, and he said hatefully, "If I can get out alive, I will definitely send this letter back to you, and I will also go to my father's mausoleum to tell you... It also tells about what these hundreds, thousands of loyal and brave people have done for Soochow today! Let your Father know your faithfulness and righteousness! ”

Accompanied by Sun Shao's shouting...

"Ahh Ahh

On the battlefield, the screams of being stabbed, the wails of being shot by arrows, continued, and the tragic and increasingly one-sided battle continued.

Li Lin inevitably fell on this glorious battlefield in the end.

"General... It will take some time for the fire to burn down the arsenal..."

At this time, the dead man of Hongyan reported to Sun Shao.

Sun Shao put Li Lin aside peacefully, he stood up, and faced Lu Meng, who was covered in blood, like a bloody Shura, and he stuffed Li Lin's letter into his arms.

I murmured to myself:

- "I'm afraid I'm going to fail you, this letter maybe... I can't send it away!'

With this in mind, he roared loudly: "Fight! Hold here! ”

He waved his long knife and let out a cold roar, and the rest of the soldiers also clenched their weapons, and there were many dead soldiers around them who had been seriously injured, they knew that they didn't have much combat power, but they could be meat shields!

With hundreds of dead soldiers against thousands of Lü Meng's troops, this would have been an unfair battle.

Unless... Sun Shao here is replaced by Sun Ce, replaced by Tai Shici, otherwise... There will be no chance of winning.

No!

Exactly, perhaps... Sun Shao and these dead soldiers were not for victory, they were just to delay time, delay until the fire completely covered the arsenal, delay until the fire could not be extinguished, delay until Zhou Jun, Tai Shixiang, and Huang Shan's side were successful... Delay to Wuhu Port to change the king's flag!

Fang lives and dies!

Death and life!

From the moment Sun Shao and these dead soldiers decided to attack the arsenal, life had long been insignificant, because... The brightest side of their lives is blooming.

"Kill them all... Hurry, hurry—" Lu Meng commanded loudly.

"Kill, kill—"

"Crush them—"

Lu Meng's troops seemed to see the high-ranking officials Houlu, one by one put down the arrows in their hands, and chose to quickly break through the enemy's defense line by handing over the enemy, hundreds of people faced thousands of people head-on, and the momentum alone was enough to suffocate people.

"General Sun, the old man is one step ahead-"

Among the dead of the wild goose, an old man took the lead in the battle, laughing and rushing forward.

He was seriously wounded, but he seemed to be riding in the dust, and the emaciated figure in the thin morning light made people awe-inspired.

"General Sun, let's go first-"

More than twenty black-clothed dead soldiers also stood up, following the old man, delaying time with flesh and blood, resisting thousands of troops—

Sun Shao took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, he looked at the arsenal that was burning more and more, but the big tears slipped from the corners of his eyes, and he muttered: "Brothers, you go slowly, I... My Sun Shao will be there then—"

"Hmph..."

On the other hand, looking at Lu Meng and his troops, watching these remnants of soldiers and injuries rushing towards him, he couldn't help but be a little shocked at first, and then snorted coldly, and groaned in his mouth: "Looking for death-"

Oh, yes...

A group of dead soldiers, how can they be compared to the regular army, let alone his Lu Meng's troops, who are the division of a hundred battles.

It's just that in the face of these people's resolute and death-defying charges, including Lu Meng... All these Wu soldiers inexplicably felt a little hesitant in their footsteps... I don't know if it's admiration or fear.

"Da Da Da-"

At that moment, the sound of a horse's hooves rang out.

The neighing of the horses shook the world and drew everyone's attention.

The figure on the horse's body, plain silver armor, dressed in white robes, holding a rusty spear, and wearing a mask with a cold light on his face.

His eyes were clear, and he came with a murderous aura—

…

"Who is it?"

Sun Shao shouted in astonishment.

There is no bloody color on the armor of the person who came, and the horse he rode was also an old horse, but inexplicably, as soon as he appeared... The aura that emanates from the inside out is terrifying.

"Could it be... It's him? ”

This time the shock was Lu Meng...

It was as if I had thought of something, to be precise, of a certain legend, of the past... He once fought side by side with Tai Shici, and fought with the cavalry of the two of them, including Sun Ce, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Jiang Qin, and Zhou Tai... A total of thirteen horsemen in the First World War.

In that battle, Sun Ce and Tai Shici were "king to king"...

But in the same battle, there is another name that resounded in Jiangdong, that is... The one who single-handedly stopped the twelve horsemen, and was famous... But because Tai Shi Ci descended to Sun Ce, he returned to live in seclusion!

He doesn't have a name...

There is only one name for him on the rivers and lakes - Qu A Junior!

No, it's been since his first battle... It's been more than ten years, and Qu A's young general... Hehe, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear that "little" word anymore!

…

…

In Jiangling City, in a post house, Lu Su looked at the southeast direction worriedly and haggardly.

It was as if his eyes had passed through the mountains, through the rivers, lakes and seas, to the surging Jianye City.

Sun Deng and Luo Tong pushed the door in, and saw Lu Su with a worried face, Luo Tong seemed to think of something, and Sun Deng asked with concern: "The metropolitan governor is worried... Koto? ”

"No!" Lu Su immediately replied, "What the prince of Yunqi said is right, I am the governor of Eastern Wu, and you are the prince of Eastern Wu, but so what?" Since your father decided to conquer Jingzhou in the west, you and I have become abandoned sons and fallen victim to the strategy of Eastern Wu. ”

Having said that, Lu Su's expression directly betrayed him...

Even if he is an abandoned son, Lu Su is still worried about Jiangdong... I'm worried about the many years he's put in the effort he's put in.

There's nothing like watching so many years of hard work go down the drain... It's even more painful.

"The Metropolitan Governor still can't let go of Jiangdong..."Sun Deng opened his mouth, in fact, he couldn't let go, after all, it was his father and his home...

Can... Can... Father can be so ruthless, take him as a hostage, and then don't care about his life or death, and even use his life and death to earn the opportunity to attack Jingzhou.

Chilling...

Who can not be chilled?

"Listen to those Jingzhou soldiers discuss..."Luo Tong added, "Today... It is Jingzhou's general attack on Jiangdong, including the Hongyan hidden in it, including the flying ball soldiers..."

Speaking of this, Luo Tong added, "Governor Lu and the eldest prince don't know yet, the leader of that Hongyan is actually Sun Shao, the son of Sun Bofu... And also... And Zhou Xun, the new governor of Wu Hou and the commander-in-chief of Jiangfang, turned out to be... It turned out to be the person of the Cloud Banner Child! ”

This...

Luo Tong's words made Lu Su and Sun Deng's hearts tremble violently.

As for this piece of information obtained by Luo Tong, if he wants to launch a general offensive today, then there is no need to hide it.

The veracity of this information... Yes, it is guaranteed.

"Whew..."

Lu Su exhaled heavily.

Sun Deng said, "If it's just Sun Shaoli who should cooperate with the outside, then... There is still a father in Jianye City, as well as Lu Ziming, who wants to disintegrate from within... I'm afraid it's not that easy! Unless..."

"Unless what?" Luo Tong hurriedly asked...

Sun Deng turned his gaze to Lu Su's side.

Lu Su pondered for a while, and finished the next words for Sun Deng, "What the eldest son means is that the three armies are easy to obtain, but the first general is hard to find... If there is no candidate who can match Lu Meng in Jianye City, I am afraid that this general attack... Not necessarily! ”

Not...

Who can match Lu Meng?

Luo Tong hesitated... He thought about it carefully, and went through all the internal generals he could think of in his mind, and it seemed... There really isn't such a person.

He then asked, "What if Soochow holds on this time?" ”

This...

Lu Su's expression became complicated, as if he hoped that Dongwu could hold on, but at the same time... The darkest Soochow can see the light.

It's paradoxical ... But it was also something he had to go through.

After pondering for a long time, Lu Su finally spoke: "Hold on... That is a catastrophe for the creatures of Jiangdong and Li Shu! ”

Oh, yes...

If the inside and outside can conquer Jianye City and take the six counties of Jiangdong in one go, then at least... Thousands of Li Shu, they can avoid the suffering of war, and Jiangdong... It will also usher in a new chapter under Guan Lin's rule.

If you start from Lu Su's more than ten years of fighting, he doesn't want to see this scene...

But if you start from the future of Lusu and the future of Jiangdong, he is willing to be the one who welcomes the king!

"War is inevitable, and I just want to... There will be fewer casualties! ”

With a long sigh, Lu Su closed his eyes and stopped talking...

…

On this side, Lu Su, Sun Deng, and Luo Tong paid great attention to the war in Jiangdong.

Over there, Zhuge Ke, Zhuge Jin, and Ling Tong in Xudu, Lu Xun in Jiangling, Gan Ning, Sun Jiao, Su Fei, and Lu Yan on the flying ball... They also kept an eye on this battle of crossing the river.

Among them, Lu Xun was the first to undergo earth-shaking changes in his expression.

After only a few words, his cheeks changed from worry to consternation, to disbelief.

As for the reason, just now...

Guan Lin saw that Lu Xun was too nervous, so he told him something.

To be precise, it was a secret that had been hidden in his heart for a long time.

It was this secret that made Lu Xun so stunned that he couldn't breathe and couldn't help himself...

"How did you find him?"

After pondering for a long time, Lu Xun asked Guan Lin with a shocked tone.

"Actually, as early as when I sent you to Jiaozhou to find Xu Yuanzhi, I sent Zhuge Ke to investigate another person..."

Guan Lin's answer was as indifferent as ever, as if all this happened logically.

Lu Xun's surprise did not decrease but increased, "Then... You've found the legendary Qu A general? ”

"It's not easy..."Guan Lin sighed, and with it, he recalled the past... This is an action that has been hidden for a long time.

Speaking of which, in order to find a reliable and trustworthy helper for his father Guan Yu, Guan Lin sent Lu Xun to look for Xu Shu outside the sea.

And at that time, Guan Lin thought of Xu Shu, and naturally thought of another one, who lived in seclusion, but because of the man who had been a god in World War I, the famous general of Shentingling - Qu A!

It was still a battle when Sun Ce attacked Liu Xuan in Jiangdong...

Sun Ce ordered Han Dang, Song Qian, Huang Gai and other thirteen horsemen to explore the camp, Tai Shici, who was the general under Liu Xiang at the time, heard that Sun Ce was coming, and wanted to capture Sun Ce alive, and shouted when he left the camp: "Those who have the courage come with me!" ”。

At this time, all the generals in Liu Xuan's tent were silent, and only one of the young generals responded loudly: "Taishi Ci is really a fierce general, I can help him!" So he slapped his horse and chased after him, and his action caused the generals in the tent to laugh.

After that, it is recorded in the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms" - Taishi Cishi met with a horseman. Thirteen of them are Han Dang, Song Qian, and Huang Gai.

Then, it was Sun Ce and Tai Shi Ci who fought and killed...

And this young general single-handedly stopped twelve people, including Han Dang, Song Qian, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, Jiang Qin, and Song Qian, and bought time for Tai Shici and Sun Ce to fight alone.

Having said that, among the twelve tigers of Eastern Wu, Cheng Pu can be counted as a "strong second-rate" existence, Huang Gai is a "middle second-rate" existence, Han Dang is a "weak first-rate" existence, Zhou Tai is a "first-class" existence, Jiang Qin and Song Qian are "weak second-rate" existences, don't look at these people... The performance of the single challenge is not outstanding, but the twelve are together, and I am afraid that Lu Bu and Guan Yu are not opponents.

But "Qu A Junior" did it...

What's even more bizarre is that after Tai Shi Ci surrendered to Sun Ce, the famous Qu A junior suddenly disappeared mysteriously.

In this regard, there are different opinions in history, some say that he is "hidden in the court, hidden in the city, and small hidden in the wild"!

Some people also say that this person is Zhao Yun, Wen Yang, Ma Zhong, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan...

Of course, this is all.

There is also a saying that Qu A is the brother of Zhao Fan of Guiyang City and the deceased husband of Fan...

is the one who wants to remarry his sister-in-law to Zhao Yun!

What is the truth? Guan Lin didn't know either.

But through these clues, Guan Lin still has some ideas... Zhuge Ke was specially sent to investigate.

In the end, Zhuge Ke was in the wild goose... A subordinate general of Taishi Xiang found the answer.

It turned out that the young general Qu A was a native of Shucheng, Lujiang, and Sun Ce was ordered by Yuan Shu in the past... Led the army to attack Lu Kang (Lu Xun's uncle and patriarch of the Lu family).

The war... It is recorded that more than half of the Lu family died, but what is not recorded is that Sun Ce's domineering and heroic... It also killed more than 20,000 local soldiers and horses!

Among them, the father of Qu A died here.

Of course, the final result was also a huge oolong, and the Lujiang Taishou promised by Yuan Shuben to Sun Ce did not fulfill the contract because he defeated Lu Kang, but instead sent his henchmen to take over.

As for General Qu A, Sun Ce is his enemy, but Yuan Shu also has a deep hatred with him.

No one knows about his teacher, but since his father's death, he has secretly practiced martial arts... took refuge in Liu Xuan, in a vain attempt to avenge his father one day, and it was also at this time... He got acquainted with Tai Shici, and during his time in the army, he was mostly taken care of by Tai Shici, and the two became brothers.

Finally... The two armies fought, Tai Shi Ci wanted to kill Sun Ce, out of personal enmity, out of brotherly love for Tai Shi Ci, Qu A Xiao General bravely took the lead and went with Tai Shi Ci.

But in the end... Knowing that Tai Shi Ci was going to surrender to Sun Ce, after Qu A broke off his friendship with him, he went incognito... Retreat to the mountains and forests.

The place where he retreated was only Tai Shi Ci's former subordinates, and Tai Shi Xiang's subordinates knew...

It is also along the dark line of Hongyan that Zhuge Ke is really in the place of Shucheng in Lujiang... Found the reclusive Qu A junior general.

And according to Guan Lin's instructions, he directly took out the evidence and told him... His former good brother, the "Tai Shi Ci" who later broke off his friendship... The truth of death.

Time...

The hatred of the brother and the hatred of the father jumped on the paper...

The long-sealed memory echoes again!

Immediately, General Qu A was about to pick up a gun to assassinate Sun Quan... With these two great feuds in blood, to comfort the souls of my father and good brother in heaven...

But Zhuge Ke still persuaded him according to Guan Lin's instructions, and told him that Hongyan should cooperate with the outside... A plan to take over Koto.

One is the son of a brother... One is family hatred and national hatred, naturally... Qu Ah Xiao immediately agreed, only said... Don't hesitate to let him know when you need to! As long as it is the destruction of Eastern Wu, as long as it is the slaughter of the Sun family, he will participate!

Undoubtedly...

There is no more suitable time for him to act than now, when he is attacking Jianye City and Dongwu is about to fall to the country.

So...

After breaking through Lujiang Shucheng, Guan Lin boldly used this "Qu A young general", but he didn't tell anyone about it...

As for the reasons, one is that the time is too short, and the other is... Guan Lin is afraid that the news will leak out!

It can't have a surprising effect!

This is also when "Qu A Junior" appeared single-handedly in front of the arsenal of Jianye City, everyone was shocked... The reason for the shock.

"Oh my God..."

When he heard Guan Lin narrate the general manager during this period, Lu Xun only felt that his head was buzzing.

After a long time, he came to his senses, and he just sighed in shock: "It turns out... This complicated chess game, in addition to the own hand, the clever hand, the vulgar hand... You still have this hand of God! ”

As Lu Xun said...

Go pays attention to - this hand, the best hand, and the vulgar hand!

In Guan Lin's layout, Guan Yu and Mi Fang attacked head-on;

Jiaozhou's attack from behind to the north is also his own hand;

The Flying Ball Soldier Air Strike is a skillful hand;

On the contrary, it is the Hongyan dominated by Sun Shao... In the face of a powerful enemy like Lu Meng, he still has to cooperate with the outside world... Complete difficult tasks, it's more like a layman!

But...

If you add Qu A's junior general...

Coupled with this young general Qu A, who was able to fight the twelve generals of Eastern Wu in the past, it is very likely that he will be a layman... Transformed into a god's hand—

With this in mind...

Guan Lin slowly walked to the window, he was also looking forward to the place facing Jiangdong, as if... In the barrier of the mountains, it seems that under the scorching sun, a goshawk... Its piercing gaze was looking directly at the sun.

Seems... In the experience of flying thousands of times, he has the ability to chase the glory of the sun!

In addition to this, the straight trunk of the spruce is also aimed at the sky, as if... In countless days and nights of silent growth... It is finally going to go straight into the sky today, stepping through the sky-
